[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1841995, member: 204485"] So is it an early or late 2009 model? This is easily found in About This Mac under the Apple menu. If it’s the late model upgrading to High Sierra should solve the problem. This will also offer the option to change to the new Apple filing system APFS. You shouldn’t anticipate problems with the upgrade, the only people who post here are the few who had problems, the vast majority do not. I would advise one thing though. Download a copy of Carbon Copy Cloner from Bombich. The free trial version will enable you to clone your internal drive onto an external USB HD and restore it to your device should something go wrong or if you simply don’t like High Sierra. You may think this is a lot of effort to go to but CCC is simple to use, has great support and is so much easier that any other method of reverting or restoring. You might even decide to buy the full version. A bootable clone has a lot of uses. Sent from my iPhone using [url=http://r.tapatalk.com/byo?rid=95677]Mac-Forums[/url] [/QUOTE]
